Arrow Political - Junk.

Below in blue is a type of email that many people recieve, but not many know that these are generated by our Department of Homeland Security.

It is a shallow security check of US Citizens.

FROM THE DESK OF MR.KEN ZUNGA.
AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING MANAGER,
BANK OF AFRICA (B.O.A)
OUAGADOUGOU-BURKINA FASO.


Dear Friend,

Do accept my sincere apologies if my mail does not meet your personal ethics, I am Mr Ken Zunga. The manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance department of my Bank. I am writing you for the second time since you did not reply to me at first. However, I am contacting you in order to ask for your assistance on this confidential business proposal with full financial benefit for both me and you. Before I go into further details, please be informed that I am writing without any other person(s) pre-knowledge of my contacting you on this transaction. Therefore I will appreciate same attitude to be maintained by you all through.
In my department I discovered an abandoned sum of US$8.5M, (Eight Million, Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars) with account number 14-2558-5976 that belongs to one of our foreign customers who died along with his wife and only daughter in a plane crash of Alaska Airlines Flight number 261 which crashed on January 31st 2000. You shall read more about the crash on visiting this site. CNN - Names of those aboard Alaska Airlines Flight 261 - February 01, 2000

The owner of this account is Mr. Morris Thompson an American and great industrialist and a resident of Alaska. It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this business proposal to you and for our bank to release the money to you. You have to follow the instruction which I will be sending to you as the next of kin or business partner to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and I don't want this money to go into our bank treasury as unclaimed bill.
In appreciation of your assistance, I am offering you 35% of the total sum. 5% for contingencies (cost of transfer/other charges) likely to be incurred during the course of transaction, while the remaining 60% is for me and i will be investing part of my share in your country under your care. Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or email the text of the application which you will complete and forward to our bank asking for this money to be paid to you as the next of kin to Mr. Morris Thompson.

This transaction is totally free of risk and troubles as the fund is legitimate and does not originate from drug, money laundry, terrorism or any other illegal act. You should contact me immediately you finish reading this mail via email with the following information's.
1) Your office and home addresses
2) Your Occupation.
3) Your Age.
4) Your Private Telephone number.
5) Your Nationality.
6) Your Marital Status.

I await for your favorable response.
Yours Faithfully,
Mr Ken Zunga.

Well I learned a big part of the police style while I was in jail and in prison, and the authorities would send in under-cover agents to spy and to find out info from the inmates. The type of questions they ask and the obvious leadings are present in that type of email.

The emails come from other Countries because the US Homeland Security is a Federal agency and our laws will not allow them to intrap American citizens in internal stings, but having an international sourse makes it into a federal priority type crime.

Plus they ask for unneccessary information like address, age, marital staus and particularly they ask Nationality because they are particularly after foreigners and foreign sympathies here in the USA.

And these kind of "junk-mail" gets through the Yahoo and AOL sensors and Spam-Guards and that is nearly imposible to do, and imposible to do repeatedly, because the search engine email providers are powerful elements of the Internet.

Also these kinds of emails will often do stuff like give sign that they are listed in the address / contacts when they are not. And some will even go into the Spam box after deleting from the inbox and only a the gov would have the authority to violate the search engine's (Google, Yahoo, AOL) spam guards.

So it has many tell-tale signs pointing directly to the gov Homeland Security searching for terrorist links in the USA.

There is also the report that all the 9-11 high-jackers used emails to communicate and so the internal search for enemies is on.

This kind of junk gets thru my spam guard about once every six weeks or so. You hit the delete button and it goes away. I used to work in the fraud dept. It's not as difficult to hack into a computer as you might think. It has nothing to do with Bush. I've "won" lotteries I have never participated in and all kinds of baloney. Stop being so paranoid!

If I were really "paranoid" about it then I would not post it in a public Internet Forum like done here.

It is just a piece of trivia that I believe people need to know.

Hmm, well I get a few (to a few dozen) spam e-mails in my Yahoo! inbox every week. They come from all over. Should I be as freakishly paranoid as you that they're from the government?

This is, I guess, your point for this thread: you are opposed to our government rooting out terrorists. The government should leave terrorists alone because they want to enjoy all of this country's wonderful offerings like everyone else - after they [terrorists] have forced everyone into Islamic submission, that is.

Well, if someone is stupid enough to tell a complete stranger something like, "Yes, I am here on an illegal visa so that I may do harm to America..." they deserve to be caught and beaten.


Hey, Jimmy, read this.

Apparently, this time the scam has acquired another sort of victim... someone so predisposed to delusional fear of his own government that every odd thing that pops up is "the government's" fault, and thus the sick mind's dementia continues.

I feel like I'm watching another episode of "The Twilight Zone"...
